Goldilocks and the Three Bears
Read the story making use of pictures to aid comprehension. Provide copies of the story for the children to follow along, use a big book edition or a copy on an overhead projector.
Compare student predictions to story events to determine accuracy. Ask questions such as “Did Goldilocks enter the bears’ house? Did Goldilocks eat their porridge? Did Goldilocks break their chairs? Did Goldilocks sleep in their beds? etc. Model and encourage choral responses: “Yes, she did.”
For beginning level students, provide play opportunities to re-enact the story using realia and paper masks or name cards.
Display a pocket chart. Write the three events of the story on sentence strips. Read the strips in order and place in the pocket chart identified as the “first, second, and third’ event.
Place students into groups of three and give each child a sentence strip. Children write one of the three events on a strip and read the strip within the small group. Next, groups place strips in the correct order in the pocket chart, responding to “What is the first event? Second event? etc.” Students read their strips aloud to the large group.
Literate students can write a summary of the story in their journals.
|
Point to appropriate characters and objects in pictures to increase comprehension. Provide realia such as miniature furniture, table ware, etc. to focus and increase comprehension in story events. Encourage children to follow the print with their fingers if they are beginning literate.
Write and point to target questions and pictures as needed. Write and model group responses.
Small group play-acting with props.
Ask children to retell the three events in Buddy pairs.
Small group work with buddy reading and teacher prompting.
Pocket chart sentences provide support for journal writing.

gestures for the three characters’ stating:
“Someone’s been eating/sitting/sleeping in my porridge/chair/bed.” Write these statements on a chart and practice with the large group and smaller groups.
Ask WH questions for choral responses from the class: “Why didn’t Goldilocks eat Papa Bear’s porridge/sit in Papa Bear’s chair/sleep in Papa Bear’s bed?" Point to the chart and model their choral responses:
“Because it was too hot/big/hard, etc.” Continue for all characters.
Display sight words
“hot/cold/big/hard/soft" and teach word family and consonant blends using these five words. Use a variety of techniques such as
word cards manipulated by students
picture drawings of target vocabulary
word sorts of word families and rhymes
word sorts of initial and final consonant blends
masking of final or initial letters in a word
changing target consonants and blends to produce errors which can be corrected by students
Expand instruction to the verbs “eating/sitting/sleeping.”
Provide pairs of students with oak tag responses “Too hot/cold/hard/soft/big.” Ask the WH questions again and tell students with the correct response to hold up their card. Continue with cards stating “Someone’s been eating/sitting/sleeping, etc ”
As a class activity, make puppets of the four main characters (toilet paper roll puppets, paper bag puppets, stick puppets, etc.). Each child can then use these puppets to call out the dialog as the story is read to them. Later, divide students into groups of four and use the puppets to act out the story. Provide opportunities for students to watch each other perform.

Continue with other examples and questions “Because of the...?” “Due to the...?” Indicate that the cause of an action leads to an effect. Label the boxes Cause and Effect.
2. Refer to the story of Goldilocks. Read the section where Goldilocks sees the bowls of porridge. Ask students to listen for the reason why she ate Baby Bear’s porridge. Students talk in buddy pairs to determine the cause of Goldilocks’ action. The story indicates that she was hungry. Write “hungry” in the cause box and ask students to talk about the effect of her hunger. Write “ate the porridge all up” in the effect box. Expand these boxes into complete statements such as: “Goldilocks was hungry so she ate Baby Bear’s porridge.” Encourage students to tell each other the complete statement. Write the key sentence frame on the chart: “Goldilocks was so she .” Continue in this way to elicit information on the other two events in the story (tired/sat, very tired/slept). If students are at an intermediate level of language, introduce other cause and effect structures such: “Because Goldilocks was she ” and “Goldilocks because she was so .” Students can write three of these sentences in their journals. Encourage more advanced learners to write other examples from the story,

1. Reinforce student knowledge of the writing process by supporting the writing of a summary of the Goldilocks story with a clear Beginning, Middle and End. Depending on the level of the student, provide scaffolding of the following types:
Cloze summaries of a three paragraph story that eliminate the names of the characters and some of the target vocabulary.
Outlines of the story with key sentence frames intact.
Question guidelines that lead to the
